EUROPEAN SKATEBOARD CHAMPIONSHIPS 2010!

It is time again for summer, joy, sun and Basel! Hard to believe it’s already for the 10th time that Carhartt is presenting the etnies European Skateboard Championships 2010 from the 5th – 8th of August in Basel, Switzerland. IOU Ramps will be in charge of getting the party going with a redesigned streetcourse and miniramp.

The city of Basel provides the venue and over 300 skateboarders from over 20 nations are on the guest list. We would be happy if you join the ESC crew, etnies, Carhartt, Element, Skullcandy, Zimstern, G-Shock, and Red Bull to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the ESC and the party of the summer with us.

The youngsters, 16 and under, start off the show with the Street Junior Champs on Thursday afternoon. On Friday we celebrate skateboarding all day long during the Street prequalification to find the ones who will compete against the Top 100 from Europe. This “VIP list” of 100 prequalified riders will be announced on www.skateboardeurope.com at the beginning of June. Saturday kicks off the miniramp with the qualification runs, as well as the Street qualification. Sunday is dedicated to the finals in street, miniramp and Girl’s Jam. Hopefully the crowd and the competitors will still be in the mood to have a good time after the Saturday night party mission.

Don’t miss out the 10th anniversary of the ESC in Basel! See you in the summer!

A huge “Thank you” goes to etnies and Carhartt for all the gifts and great ideas and the support of the last ten years of the European Skateboard Championships.
